Excellent, I've change the path to /var/spool/samba. It now works fine !!

I even managed to get my pseudo pdf printer to work properly !

Thanks,

Jamie

Mine is lp:sys with drwx------, but my smb.conf defines the samba printing
to 
go to /var/spoo/samba.  Rightly or wrongly, that has root:root with 
drwxrwxrwt - I don't know what that final 't' signifies?
